WRITING IN SCIENTIFIC NOTATION Write the number in scientific notation. \( \begin{array}{lll}\text { 6. } 0.005 & \text { 7. } 72,000,000 & \text { 8. } 0.00406 \\ \text { 9. } 1,065,250 & \text { 10. } 0.000045 & \text { 11. } 1,060,000,000\end{array} \)

To write numbers in scientific notation, you need to express them as a product of a number between 1 and 10 and a power of 10. For example, \(0.005\) becomes \(5.0 \times 10^{-3}\), while \(72,000,000\) converts to \(7.2 \times 10^7\). For larger numbers like \(1,065,250\), you shift the decimal point to create \(1.06525 \times 10^6\). Tiny numbers like \(0.000045\) are written as \(4.5 \times 10^{-5}\). Finally, \(1,060,000,000\) simplifies to \(1.06 \times 10^9\). This way transforms unwieldy figures into a more manageable format!
